There is something very sensual about warm weather. The feeling of a cool breeze on a warm day, the feeling of a warm breeze on a cool evening. I wonder if its because we wear less clothing and more of our skin is exposed. I love sitting outside on summer evenings, in a sundress, with my hair down. I love the feeling of a cool breeze on my warm skin after a day in the sun, the way it blows my hair around, lifting it off my shoulders, the way the curls slide across my face and I can smell the freshness of my shampoo. I like watching the skirt of my dress dance around my legs. It's languid and yet animated at the same time. I also love the way fruit smells when its been sitting in the sun, strawberries always smell stronger.
I love looking at the world through dark tinted lenses and tortoise shell frames. I love brightly painted toenails and fun sandals. I love walking through the grass barefoot, the coolness of it against my feet. I love laying in the sun, my whole body warm to the touch, the familiar feel of a book in my hands, the smell of sunscreen and warm grass heavy in the air.
